In recent years there has been a huge change in how we store, handle and move data. Such large volumes of data carry risks to companies, however, if they are not managed correctly.
Management of data by you and your team is likely to be an important part of your role as a manager. If it is not managed properly, the company could suffer financial loss and reputational damage.

This guide is designed to help you manage your team to meet the requirements of data protection legislation.
